With the news of a McPlant burger this year, McDonald’s has announced its partnership with meat alternative brand Beyond Meat.
With this news, the “golden arches” are expected to do more than just one type of plant-based menu item.
“We’re involved with McDonald’s on a number of different fronts. We’re doing things now to prepare for things in the future that involve McDonald’s,” Beyond Meat CEO Ethan Brown said in an interview.
Beyond Meat has also been partnering with Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut to offer meat-free alternatives.
Would you try a McPlant or any other meatless options at McDonald’s? Have you eaten vegan burgers before?
